I ordered this watch on January 30, 2012 and am writing this review on November 4, 2013 I am a "watch junkie" so this went to add to my collection. It was my first Luminox purchase. Allow me to explain the difficulties and disappointments I have had with this timepiece.

First of all, if you look closely at the watch itself and/or read the product description, you will notice that this watch claims to be water resistant to 100 meters, which by my math is roughly 300 feet. This is a pretty standard water resistance depth for any quality watch. Fast forward to summer of 2012 when I went scuba diving and the watch began to take on water at 60 feet. The crystal fogged up from the inside and the watch stopped running shortly thereafter. I checked online at the Luminox website for a repair facility. There's only one authorized Luminox repair facility in the US and it is in Cranston, Rhode Island. I shipped my watch at my own expense all the way across the country. Included with the watch was an 8.5x11 inch piece of paper on which I had written a nice letter explaining what had happened along with my name, phone number, email address and return mailing address.

Well, a couple months go by and I've still not received my watch back nor have I heard a word from this jewelry store in Rhode Island. I call, no one answers, I leave a message with my name and number and a brief explanation of why I was calling and wait. Another week. Nada. I call again and leave another message, I send an email too. Finally, a few days later someone calls me back and tries to tell me that they got a watch shipped there via UPS, but it didn't have a name or anything with it, so it's just been sitting there. Okay, fine, whatever. Can you fix it?Read more ›

This is by far the best watch I ever bought. I had a swiss army summit xlt for years and replaced it with the same watch because I loved it so much. The only time you would ever see me not wearing that watch would be walking through metal detectors at air ports. I like watches that have a tactical look to them. Big watches or watches with a ton of bling aren't my style. When I would wake up in the mornings before my alarm clock sounded, I would have to hold my wrist inches away from my face to see if I had to get up for work. The markers around this piece aren't green paint that has to "charge" in the light. They're tiny tubes filled with a radioactive gas that luminates 24/7 with or without light. The blue markers look so sick and the orange 12 indicator is just as sharp. Supposedly the gas will emit the light for up to 25 years. The watch is made from carbon which seems to be very strong and is definitely very light. This might be hard to picture, but there are two little flares on the waistband that keep the two bands that hold down the excess strap in place so they don't slide up and let the excess band stick out. You can't really see the numbers on the face of the watch since its blackest out, but the markers around the face as well as the ones on the hour, minute, and second hand are white in daylight and are very visible against the contrast of the black face. The strap is a silky plastic that feels great against my wrist. Plastic is so much better than leather or fabric because it won't stink or decay after a while. If you're looking for a watch that looks tactical, this watch is for you. I would recommend this watch to any of my buddies.

EDIT 5/23/14: It's a great watch. I found the top band to be too stiff which made it want to creep around my wide wrist.Read more ›

I never write reviews about anything I buy, but I felt that I needed to because this watch has had zero reviews written on it but is an awesome watch! The watch is EXTREMELY lightweight and classy due to it not having any of those "bright colors" that the rest of the Colormark series seem to have. The blue tritium is a little dimmer than the green stuff but overall still very visible in "low light" conditions. The strap is very comfortable for being made out of rubber. The vertical tritium vial on the bezel is visible and I only note this because some have stated that the Colormark series seem to have been lacking in that department. The only downside is that the second hand does not sweep directly onto the second marker. This may or may not be a huge "turn off" for most people but I have never owned a watch that had the second hand come close to the second marker on its sweep. However, this watch actually does come the closest to having the second hand "sweep correctly." All in all, this is a great watch that will be my "kickaround" watch from now on...I hope this helps in your decision making...

I will start out saying that I am a bit biased. I love Luminox watches. Tritium hands and markers that glow like the night sights on my firearms makes for a very appealing watch to me. That said, I was hesitant when I first saw the Blackout series online. For one, all the pics make them look grey. They are not. They are black. The face is a dark grey, but everything else but date numerals and the tritium markers are black; the hands, the markings, the type on the face, all black. This makes a unique Stealthy appearance to the watch where it would seem that you cannot see the face in low light. And you can't see the black on grey numerals, yet the tritium markers on the hands make it instantly readable and looks white. And of course, when night occurs, the hands and markers all glow blue, except for the 12 o'clock position which is the usual Luminox 12 o'clock orange. Very nice indeed.

The watch is a polymer compound that is very tough and lightweight. It is a larger watch than my original Navy Seals 3000 series. I at first thought that this watch was the same size as that but when I got it, it is much larger. It is comparable to a 9000 series G-Shock. The band is a soft rubber that is comfortable and has twin holes with a dual tang since the band is quite wide (23 mm I believe, haven't measured it or tried any other bands). The band is of course completely black except for the stainless buckle which is brushed.

In the sun, this thing looks amazing, and the black numerals on the dark grey face shine. In the dark, the white markers give the time at a moment's glance. At night, the blue glow of the tritium is amazing. I am constantly asked what kind of watch I am wearing. When people look at the face up close they are amazed. Believe it or not, though this watch is supposed to be low key, it is anything but that. It's terrific.
